Dear AFOMP Members,
The Funding Committee is pleased to share our progress and achievements in securing vital resources for the Federation in 2023. Under the leadership of Chair Dr. Byung-Chul Cho (Korea), the Committee has worked diligently to expand our corporate partnerships and explore new fundraising opportunities.
Sustaining Support from Valued Partners:
We are grateful for the continued commitment of our corporate members, whose generous contributions enable AFOMP to fulfill its mission. We extend our sincere appreciation to
- PTW and SUN NUCLEAR, committed partners since 2020, whose unwavering support continues until 2024.
- ROSALINA, joining us in June 2020 and extending their partnership through May 2025.
- RTI, demonstrating their dedication through an initial partnership from 2021 to 2022 and now renewing their commitment for 2024.
- Radformation, newly joining us in 2024 with an exciting partnership that includes extra page advertisements in each newsletter.
Reaching Out to New Horizons:
The Committee actively pursued potential sponsors throughout the APAC region. We identified approximately 50 promising companies and initiated outreach efforts through personalized membership request emails. I also visited many exhibition booths during ICMP2023 along with SG Prof. Aik Hao to inform them about the corporate membership of AFOMP and encourage them join. We are confident that these efforts will result in fruitful partnerships in the near future.
Strengthening Collaborations:
We are proud to announce a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Japanese Society of Medical Physics (JSMP) regarding the “Prof. Inamura Oration Award.” JSMP has generously pledged an annual $600 USD reward separate from membership fees. To ensure transparency and proper financial management, we will make a separate reporting of income and expenses related to this award. We look forward to finalizing this agreement and celebrating this collaborative initiative.
Looking Ahead:
The Funding Committee remains dedicated to securing sustainable financial resources for AFOMP. We plan to continue our outreach efforts, explore innovative fundraising initiatives, and cultivate strong relationships with existing and potential corporate partners. For this purpose FC explore new possibilities for sponsors to promote through AFOMP monthly webinar and industrial webinar. With your continued support, we are confident that AFOMP will continue to thrive and fulfill its mission of advancing medical physics in the Asia-Oceania region.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Sincerely,
The AFOMP Funding Committee
